1

A network engineer configures SNMPv2c on a Cisco router to monitor CPU and memory utilization. The NMS is reachable and configured with the same community string 'public'. However, the NMS receives no traps from the router. The engineer verifies that the router's SNMP configuration includes 'snmp-server enable traps' and 'snmp-server host 192.168.1.100 version 2c public'. What is the most likely cause of the missing traps?

2

An engineer is troubleshooting a syslog issue on a Cisco switch. The switch is configured with 'logging host 10.1.1.1' and 'logging trap informational'. The syslog server at 10.1.1.1 receives messages from other devices but not from this switch. The engineer can ping 10.1.1.1 from the switch. What is the most likely cause?

3

A network engineer configures SNMPv3 on a Cisco router for secure monitoring. The configuration includes 'snmp-server group ADMIN v3 priv', 'snmp-server user admin ADMIN v3 auth sha cisco123 priv aes 128 cisco456', and 'snmp-server host 10.1.1.2 version 3 priv admin'. The NMS is configured with the same credentials. However, the NMS cannot poll the router. The engineer verifies that the router's SNMP agent is enabled. What is the most likely cause?

4

An engineer notices that syslog messages from a Cisco router are not timestamped correctly. The router is configured with 'service timestamps log datetime msec' and 'logging host 10.1.1.1'. The syslog server shows messages with the correct time but the local logs on the router show incorrect timestamps. What is the most likely cause?

5

A network engineer configures SNMPv2c on a Cisco switch to send traps to an NMS at 192.168.1.100 with community 'monitor'. The engineer also configures 'snmp-server enable traps snmp linkdown linkup'. The NMS receives link traps but not authentication failure traps. The engineer has not configured any access control. What is the most likely reason?

6

An engineer is configuring syslog on a Cisco router to send messages to two servers: 10.1.1.1 (primary) and 10.1.1.2 (secondary). The configuration includes 'logging host 10.1.1.1' and 'logging host 10.1.1.2'. The engineer wants messages to be sent to both servers simultaneously. However, only the first server receives messages. What is the most likely cause?

7

A network engineer configures SNMPv3 on a Cisco router with the following: 'snmp-server group GRP v3 priv', 'snmp-server user usr GRP v3 auth sha pass1 priv aes 128 pass2'. The NMS is configured with the same credentials. However, the NMS cannot perform SNMP walks. The engineer notices that the router's SNMP agent is responding to queries from other devices. What is the most likely cause?

8

An engineer configures syslog on a Cisco router with 'logging host 10.1.1.1' and 'logging trap warnings'. The engineer wants to receive only messages with severity warning (4) and higher (0-4). However, the syslog server receives messages with severity debug (7). What is the most likely cause?

9

A network engineer configures SNMPv2c on a Cisco switch to send traps to an NMS. The engineer uses 'snmp-server community public RO' and 'snmp-server host 10.1.1.1 version 2c public'. The NMS receives traps, but the engineer notices that the traps contain the IP address of the management interface (VLAN 1) instead of the loopback interface (Loopback0) that is used for management. The engineer wants the traps to use the loopback IP as the source. What should the engineer do?

10
